Vivian stood on the balcony with her eyes closed. Her lips curved into a smile feeling the warm breeze on her body. It's disheartening this would be the last time she would feel the breeze and also...she opened her eyes, gazing at the stars and the moon. She wouldn't lie, it hurts. It hurts knowing that this would be her last day on this crazy heart and she would finally be gone. It hurts knowing that before she leaves again, she won't see love in Styx's eyes for her but hatred, one that is only directed at her. She could choose to stay back and get the happily ever after she always dreamed off. She could choose to get rid of Vivian's body but that was impossible. She no more had a choice ever since she chose Vivian's body to reincarnate through. Maybe if Vivian wasn't this sick then that could have been possible but at the moment it was impossible. It was too late and there was nothing she could do and even if there was. She couldn't possibly betray Vivian after the promises she ma
15 years ago"Where are you, Ama!" Lyla, Ama's sister, barged into Ama's room.Ama sat up, rubbing her sleepy eyes. She still felt so sleepy but it seems she won't be having any sleep with her sister around. "I've been searching for you!" Lyla yelled dramatically, jumping on Ama's bed."As you can see, I was in my room all along," she responded, stopping herself from rolling her eyes."I can see that and where did you disappear to yesterday. You left me all alone in the palace and I was searching for you, only to find out you came back home without me!" She snapped, glaring at her sister. She couldn't believe she took her to the palace only to leave her there."Did I?" Ama said almost in a whisper but loud enough for Lyla to hear. Her lips curved into a smile, thinking about what happened the other day with a man she had grown to have feelings for. She sure as hell knows that she should feel nothing but shame for losing her virginity to a stranger who wasn't her husband. But what sho
Evening came earlier than expected, Ama stood beside her window with her kitten in her arms. She caresses her kitten's fur, thinking about the shameful thing she did a few hours ago.She wouldn't lie, she felt shameful for what she did but she couldn't blame herself. She couldn't stop thinking about Styx and that itself was driving her crazy. She knows too well she shouldn't have feelings for him since he was the king and there's a slim chance he also had feelings for her. She went ahead to sleep with a man she knows nothing about except that he's the king and a werewolf. Creatures she vowed to stay far away from but she still went ahead to sleep with one of them.Ama let out a sigh, gazing at the moon. It was something she enjoyed gazing at, she always felt warm gazing at the moon and it's been one of her favorite things to do. 'Does Styx also like staring at the moon?' she mused, curious about what he was doing at that moment. What if he had forgotten about her and she was just one
"I did clinged onto him. I slept with him and lost my virginity after all?" Ama blattered, covering her mouth in shock. Lyla's eyes widened in shock, staring at her younger sister; "You did what?!" "It was...""Oh my!" She stood up, walking around Ama's room to digest everything she just heard. She has been in love with Raphael for years and she hasn't dared to go far other than hugging and holding each other's hand. There were indeed times her desires took over and she was sure Raphael too almost gave in to his desires but they had always done a good job in ignoring their desires. She was a woman after all and if she dares to lose her virginity before marriage and people find out then she was certain she won't be spared and she would be the talk of the entire town. But her sister...she went ahead and...she did that without thinking of the circumstances?!"I couldn't control my desires!" "I know, Ama and that's the only reason I'm not bouncing on you right now or pulling your ear,
"Alpha...No, I mean King Styx is here Ama!" Lyla yelled."What do you mean...what?!" Ama screamed, sitting up immediately. "What do you mean, Lyla?""King Styx is in the living room with mother. I'm still finding it hard to believe but he came here for you, Ama!" Lyla squealed happily, pulling her sister into a hug. She had been scared the entire night, worried about what the future held for her sister. She was scared that the king might reject her and ignore her but he didn't. Instead, he came all the way from the palace to their home just for her sister and she couldn't be happier.Ama sat still, shocked and confused. For a moment she felt like she was dreaming or more like she wanted to believe it was all a dream.'Why would he be here?!''Did he come for her or could it be that he came to reject her feelings?''What if he doesn't love her just like she had imagined?' So many questions on her mind, questions that she needed answers to. She couldn't think straight and she felt...sc
"And you have no right to stop me from taking my bride," Styx retorted. This woman was truly getting on his nerves and there was something about her that he found extremely strange. There were so many strange things about her, a kind of strange aura exuding from her.Penelope was fuming with anger and she was doing everything in her power not to explode. She was doing a good job holding her anger cause if she did..."You have overstayed your stay here, King Styx," she smiled, a faux smile. Her hand was itching to do something but to stop herself, she fisted her knuckles, biting her lips."Oh really?" Styx smiled, turning his head slightly towards Theo who hasn't said a single word ever since they arrived here. Frustrated, he mind linked with Theo, glaring at him.'You won't interfere!''Why should I?!''Theo?!''You are the Alpha and she would be your Luna, so fight for her!' Theo smiled, breaking the mind link and removed his eyes from Styx. He wouldn't lie, he was enjoying every bit
It took longer than expected but they finally reached the palace. The doorman pulled open the carriage door and Styx alighted first.He stood beside the carriage, stretching out his right hand towards Ama. Ama placed her hand on his, bowed her head a little and alighted from the carriage.Not releasing her hand, Styx tightened his grip on her hand. This little gesture made Ama smile and she felt a kind of...relief.Styx smiled at her, holding her hand as they walked inside the castle. Ama's new home, a place she would be staying with Styx for as long as she lived."Welcome back, King Styx and Queen Ama," the maids greeted, with a deep bow."Queen?" Ama asked, confused. Since when did she become the queen or could it be that they were mistaken.Styx chose not to reply her and smiled instead. He tightened his grip on her. They walked through series of passages and they finally reached what looked like a church.Ama's brows furrowed in confusion, looking at the unfamiliar faces in the ro
"Yes, he was engaged to Lady Sophia," Madeline said. "But he chose you instead and he never liked Lady Sophia. He had no choice but to get married to her as the elders requested. She was his half sister and they felt she would be the perfect queen and Luna," Madeline explained to clear Ama's doubt. The last thing she wanted was to make Ama feel inferior. She had never wanted her brother to get married to Sophia. Not because she doesn't like her but because deep down she felt like Sophia was only getting married to her brother so that she could be Luna and nothing else."He was to marry his half-sister?" Ama asked, confused. For a moment, she thought she heard wrong."It's not new among members of our Pack. As long as they are not of the same mother then they could get married," said Madeline. She never felt good about that kind of marriage, she found it uncomfortably and indecent. If it was up to her, she would have loved to get rid of something like that but with the elders around, s
